A Little Further Down the Road

They drove all night long on those wide open roads

Silence filled the air as the distance between them grows

She looks out her window; as the world passes her by

She takes a moment to catch her breath; hiding her tears inside

He looks her way as he tries to say something to her

All she could do was ignore his glance; she just wasn't ready for words

He tries to talk about what hurts her so deep inside

She says she's ok but, he knew that was a lie

The car lights shine all the way down the road as far as she can see

She wondered where this road will take her; eventually

Her head is turned away from his she keeps looking outside

Her heart starts beating faster and she doesn't know why

Her house is just a little further up this forever road

She can't wait to get home to shed this heavy load

That seems to carry her away to another part of herself

What he calls his own reality he made into her personal hell

She can't help the way that she feels she tried to stop this death of her heart

She really did love him but, loving him became just to damn hard

They pull up to her house; he looks to her to give her a kiss goodbye

 
She can't even breathe!  She can't kiss him let alone look into his eyes

She sighs and gives him that look as her hair falls upon her face

He brushes it away; just to look at her really not knowing what to say

 
She gives him a nod, "Nice to see you again" as she carefully opens the door

She slowly walks away with keys in her hand; she just can't cry anymore...
